Curriculum Intent
Curriculum Intent
Curriculum intent is a framework for setting out the aims of a programme of education or training, including the knowledge and skills gained at each stage.
Curriculum Design
Curriculum intent focusses on the design of the curriculum with attention to what you will deliver and why.
What it is not
